A Facebook user – Niki Moni Kashyap – in a post on Tuesday said a newborn baby after taking birth at Chaigaon warned that the world will destroy.
The Facebook post, where it was claimed that the baby died after asking all to light three lamps outside their homes, went viral on Tuesday.
The news has spread like coronavirus.
The Facebook user in the post said: “Pls Everyone Share Its Not A Fake News pls as much u can Share This”.
Another Facebook user shared the same news with an image where a baby with teeth is seen smiling. This FB user claimed the baby was born at Nalbari.
Is the news true or fake?
Fact Check:
This is fake news as no newborn baby can talk.
When ‘Northeast Now’ talked to medical experts, they said there is no truth in such news.
“There are always some people who try to create hoax and spread such news which should be stopped,” the expert said.
As the fake news is going viral on social media, Northeast Now tried to find out the original source of the image used on the Facebook page.
When Northeast Now team searched the image for some exact match, it found that the image was taken from the internet.
The image where a newborn with teeth is seen with a smile was earlier used by two websites – one is www.sadanduseless.com and the other is https://me.me.
The www.sadanduseless.com is a humour site.
Uploading the image it was written: “Welcome to the most depressive sad and useless humor site in the world!”
Babies With Grown-Up Teeth Look Terrifying.
“If you need a chuckle today (or a nightmare tonight), here’s a photo project you can check out. Scroll down to see why it’s a good thing that babies are born without teeth…”
On the website, https://me.me, the caption of the picture says: “Thanks. I hate baby’s with teeth.”
